|
Skeletor |
Match Pub |
Took a blinding one-handed catch in the covers Tenacious in his pursuit of the truth about Stavros and the white coat
– see Papa Barker |
Slashed away from ball one, soon gave his wicket away by lobbing one
up into the covers; refused to ump as he was ‘reading my book’; sulked about
the field most of the afternoon Left his pants and his book in the pavilion - FOOL |
|
Van Brad |
Match Pub |
Won the toss on a blinding hot day – batted None |
Argued about his LBW decision; Argued with oppo bowler; argued with
the oppo captain Continued to argue he had hit the ball onto his pads |
|
Papa Barker |
Match Pub |
Rolled back the years with a sublime 100; two catches with the gloves Bought two jugs |
None Accused Stavros of lurking on the boundary in a white coat – very
strange |
|
Hibbe Jr |
Match Pub |
Excellent spell of sweeper fielding None |
Couldn’t fathom their left arm spinner – even though he was a complete
twat Confessed that his lack of availability over the last few weeks was
because his Mum hadn’t washed his kit |
|
Pike |
Match Pub |
None None |
Bowled round his legs a la Mike Gatting for a duck; worst bowling ever
– 70 for 0 off 9 Went home in a sulk |

Radioactive Man |
Match Pub |
Blatted 10 useful runs with his
trademark legside spank; field went from 7-2 to 3-6 within 1 over Copied up scorebook |
Foolishly gave his skipper out LBW;
worst bowling ever – 35 for 0 off
5 including a 10-ball last over Punished for above by being forced to copy up scorebook |

Night Fever |
Match Pub |
Somehow managed 2 wickets None |
Bowled all over the place; one of two wicket thanks to a smart legside
catch by Papa Barker off a legside longhop Continued the lambasting of Mrs Hibbe by lecturing everyone on how bad
her cooking was – domestic arrangements with the Hibberds clearly under
strain; compounded white coat affair by accusing Stavros of being variously a
toilet attendant, a butcher and an ice-cream van salesman |
